    Abstract: A memory is provided that is configured to practice both a normal read operation and also a burst mode read operation. A burst mode address comparator compares a current row address to a preceding row address from a preceding read operation to determine whether a read operation is a normal read operation or a burst mode read operation. The burst mode address comparator invokes the burst mode despite the presence of an intervening write operation to a row address not equal to the preceding row address.

    Abstract: A charge-transfer transistor couples between a bit line and a sense node for a sense amplifier. During a read operation, a charge-transfer driver drives a gate voltage of the charge-transfer transistor to control whether the charge-transfer transistor conducts during a charge-transfer period. To assist the charge-transfer by the charge-transfer transistor, a first and second cross-coupled transistor are coupled between the bit line and a complement bit line.
